This what I was looking for, Maybe the new CB uses a later version of the .net framework or the CADFile.ExtraTypes has changed. "clutching at straws here".BTW the new version of Ilspy Isn't working for me, had to revert to the older version!.Dave

H EddyGot Ilspy going (win7 32) for me Carlo I'm pretty sure Paul had some trouble with his Vengrave plugin and it was to do with serialisation of his mop.so I just tested the plugin and it works.I'll have a dig around through the threads tomorrow to see what it was and how he fixed it. might help might notDave

Yes, I went through VEngrave code at the time, but that made a new MOP whereas I'm making a new Entity.I think until the new version of CamBam, is released it's not worth any effort trying to make this work just yet.

Sorry if I am missing the obvious but how to you use this to create a dashed engraving tool path. In other words I am trying to create a toolpath that is dashed like the line appears after using the plug in. When I draw a line, convert it to a dotpolyline, apply a engrave MOP and then produce the gcode the line is still a normal polyline with no dashes.

Thanks for repairing this, it works great! Just created simple file,save it. To be sure it works closed CB completely, after opening saved file all dotted lines appeared like it should. Job well done, Thanks again!

ALSO, thank you for spending the time with Karst's code to understand some of the innovations he's brought to the collective mind, here.

Every time I see a new 'unexpected' plugin come on here, I see innovation. Someone has discovered something new about the CB toolset that makes our future lives (and possibly even Andy's) easier and more productive.

I wish I had time to devote to CB code, again. I shall (sometime), but business is just crushing me right now. I guess I could have worse problems, huh?

And I've just noticed there is a field called 'TypeName', it would be best if this was not shown so I'll have to look at that, in the meantine be sure not to edit that field.************************Eddy, I must honestly say I didn't even noticed this. Used the settings box that is active when plugin is evoked.
